Ingredients

There are just a handful of easy ingredients in this strawberry avocado smoothie recipe. Here's a bit more information about what I used.

Fresh strawberries

Obviously, you'll need some strawberries for this delicious strawberry smoothie recipe.

I used frozen strawberries because they blended in with the ice better. If you use fresh strawberries, you might want to add a few more ice cubes.

Avocado

Avocado is a fantastic source of healthy fats. It also makes this smoothie recipe extra creamy too.

Coconut milk

Use unsweetened coconut milk for the best flavor and consistency.

Lime juice

A little lime juice makes the smoothie taste sweeter and fresher. For the best results, use fresh lime.

Sweetener

Sweeten the smoothie recipe with your favorite type of sweetener. I used two Stevia packets.

Ice cubes

To make it a frozen smoothie, you'll need to add plenty of ice cubes.

Please note: Check out the recipe card at the bottom for a full list of ingredients used to make this low-carb recipe.

Tips

• Use a high-powered blender. Since you are going to blend ice with the rest of the ingredients, you'll need to use one that is powerful enough.
• Choose bright red strawberries. Strawberries that aren't ripe won't be as sweet, so look for bright ripe red berries. Fresh or frozen will work.
• Adjust milk amount. Add just a little bit of milk if you want it thicker. Add more milk to thin it down.

Instructions

There are just a few really simple steps involved - you'll have a strawberry avocado smoothie in no time at all!

Blend the ingredients

It takes only a couple of minutes to whip up this delicious smoothie.

Just dump all the ingredients into the blender and give it a whirl until it looks nicely blended.

Adjust the smoothie consistency

Make sure that it is as thick or as thin as you want it to be. You might have to add more or less milk to get it how you want it.

️ Serving suggestions

Anytime is a perfect time to drink this strawberry avocado smoothie.

If you will drink it for your breakfast, add some protein, like a few egg bites or egg muffins. They are portable breakfasts you can take with you as you go about your day.

This strawberry smoothie is also perfect as a post-workout snack. To help your muscles recover, add a high-protein snack, like some protein pancakes.

This keto-friendly smoothie will also taste delicious with some light and crispy coconut flour cookies.

Or, eat a fresh spinach strawberry salad on the side for a fiber and nutrition boost!

Variations

There are many different ways you can make this strawberry avocado smoothie.

Use unsweetened almond milk instead of coconut milk. If you do, you might want to add some vanilla extract to enhance the flavor.

You can also add a few pieces of frozen banana to it. Just be careful with how much banana you add because it's a high-carb fruit.

Some heavy cream will kick up the creamy texture of this incredible smoothie.

Don't forget to add some fun garnishes on top! A few strawberry slices are a great addition to your smoothie glass.
